    Buttons can be lovely to look at and especially when they are in big jars like yours.

    I love buttons, too! I inherited my mom's button jar, and I always look there first if I only need a button or two for a project.

    Ah buttons! I don't have a button jar but my mom had one when I was little. I remember dumping out that jar, sorting and inspecting all of them. Over and over. I loved adding to that jar too! Guess I should start my own button jar!

    Buttons! I have loads of them, stored in several tins and baskets.
    My mum used her buttons not only for sewing, but also to teach us sorting things and counting! Was always a pleasure, sitting at the table with a cup of tea, close to mummy. Sweet sweet memories.

    I just started to collect 4"x 4" fabric scraps to make a thimble quilt.

    Enjoy your day, Sheila. Hugs from Holland.

    Guess I should also put up my hand and admit my button addiction too!
    I have just won some gorgeous vintage beauties on Ebay :)
    Your button display reminds me of staying with my Nan - her button jar provides hours of fascination.
    Lovely post

    A very colourful but necessary collection as you always need a button for some project.

    Good button collections are real treasures alright! I have mine nicely sorted into little jars but I think I'm going to throw them into one nice glass jar... they will look much nicer!
